I don't see how it could be a threat.

For the simpler work, AI tools are as much of a threat as frameworks or existing code generators.

For higher level work, AI tools can be great assistants, but they are very far from being able to understanding large existing code bases, inter-dependencies, side-effects, non-functional requirements, etc.

Not to mention that most software development projects fail for non-technical reasons, which code-focused models also can't help with.
